Judge, I think all doing a good job. I am very proud,
|
|
2
|
as I said before, of this court. I agree with Judge
|
|
3
|
Colgan, not with all things he said, but I would agree
|
|
4
|
I am proud of this court.
|
|
5
|
I don't want it to be compared with any
|
|
6
|
other Orphans Court in Maryland.
|
|
7
|
Sometimes it makes me cringe at some tilings
|
|
8
|
that happen in the courts. I get at least ten calls a
|
|
9
|
week from Baltimore County, Anne Arundel County, some other
|
|
10
|
counties far away, asking questions. Again I are not
|
|
11
|
pleading for any court or not pleading for even the
|
|
12
|
Orphans Court of Baltimore City but I am here to present
|
|
13
|
to this Committee the tremendous amount of work we have
|
|
14
|
in the court. I feel that if there was an abolishment or
|
|
15
|
merger to take it up into the Supreme Bench, I don't
|
|
16
|
think personally one judge could haadle it. I think
|
|
17
|
a minimum of two judges would be needed. If there
|
|
18
|
wouldn't be two judges, you would probably have one
|
|
19
|
extra judge and three masters. I am not going to comment
|
|
20
|
on how successful the Master of Equity has been but I an
|
|
21
|
sure practicing attorneys know questions with masters,
